Death they say is inevitable and I do so believe but why does it always strike so close we can never understand. I have known the late Bishop Edward W. Neufville for a long time dating back to my youth days in Yekepa. Destiny later brought us together when I had the opportunity to work with him in the Diocesan Bishop Office between 2002 and 2005.

The good memories of our interaction - he as Bishop and a father to me and I an employee and son to him will always remain in my heart as I pause now in silence to remember a great man a father and guardian who crossed my path.

Rest in peace Bishop and take your glorious reward from our Lord. We miss you.

We are grateful to have been you immediate neighbors in Gedetarbo Liberia. Our LORD looked in all of Maryland County but chose a wonderful son from Gedetarbo and ordained him Bishop of the Episcopal Church. He served our LORD so faithfully; he finished his course. We believe his soul now rests in perfect peace and that magnificent light is shining on him perpetually.

In the eucharistic prayer at furneral it reads" For Us Life has not ended Life has changed and on the glorious resurrection morning we will meet you. Sleep on! Sleep on! Rest in Peace Bishop Neufville.

It was many years ago that Bishop Neufville and I attended Bank of Monrovia officers training classes and how our meetings at various gathering thereafter recalled such fond memories over years. God bless that we saw the marriage of our children with equal Christan virtues and that he has called his faithful servant to rest. Mother you worked well with the Bishop.

When the Master Calls His Servant: To Bishop Neufville

---- By Patricia Jabbeh Wesley

When the Master calls His servant who are we to ask him why? When the servant's work is done and the angels sing him home who are we to question why? When the hero's journey ends and his family stand in awe who are we to question why? When the father packs his tools and the children stand in awe who are we to question why? When your sweetheart stands by you as you say your last goodbye who are we to question why? We are friends and loved ones dear praising God you stopped by here. God has called his dear beloved We sing praises He sent you here. Well done Dear Bishop well done The Master has called his Servant home.

Your's was a life well lived / ZOBON KOLENKY (FORMER STUDENT & SMALL TIME FRIEND TO ED. )

Bishop we will miss you. You were the one who welcomed me to school(St. Martin Episcopal 1979) and you were the same one who served as guest speaker during my graduation from Cuttington Graduate School(2007).

I knew then that you had passed the torch to another generation. I knew that you had ran your race successfully.

To Edward my friend I say never mind. But be glad that your daddy will have a grave. My daddy does not have! Be glad that you will be there to bury your daddy but i do not know if mine was ever buried...why ? because of this senseless war.

Mother my prayer goes up for Bishop and for the entire family. Your 'better half' did live a life worth following.

On behalf of my brothers and sisters i say may the soul of our great bishop and the souls of all the faithful departed rest in eternal peace and may ligth everlasting shine upon them.
